Accept Only Your Best in 2022

New year, new writers to follow

Image by the author

As 2022 kicks off, it’s time to double down on living as the best version of ourselves. We have been in a COVID-induced trance for too long. The year of the tiger is bringing the opportunity to pounce on life and make the year your own. Your life played your way!

I am committed to sharing more content and making a difference in more lives. Hopefully, by doing so I will be rewarded with opportunities to contribute on bigger stages. No matter where you are in your journey, you have chances every day to live the life of your dreams.

Here are three new writers making a splash with personal stories that demonstrate you can be whatever you set out to be.

Lola Rosario is a witty, adventurous Boriken woman who writes about travel, her personal experiences, and life reflections. In this story, she shares her childhood ambitions and weighs her dreams against the practical conservative career her mother suggests.

Here is one of her thoughtful poems, I am.

And in this story, she asks us to consider the value of the words we choose and the greetings we make. It reminded me of how I answer the question: how are you?

My answer is; “Living the dream!”

Brazilian Gabriel Morse started writing on Medium in October 2020 and is really turning heads. His TRAVEL STORIES BY GABE covers a wide range of travel topics from where to stay on your vacation:

To international coffee culture:

And Skydiving:

Gabriel brings an uncommon insight into many of the experiences you could experience regardless of where you travel to.

Phylicia Stubblefield is a fairly new writer here, having just posted six stories thus far. These pieces are highly personal and reveal the power of the individual. Here she writes about the power we all possess, though we are often quick to surrender.

In her first story, she talked about the lingering repercussions of bullying and how she is working to overcome that.

I first discovered Phylcia when she submitted her first story here at ILLUMINATION where she shares the amazing discovery she made when she decided to set boundaries for herself. Looking back on my darkest times, setting boundaries created a ladder to freedom for me, too.

Happy reading. I look forward to providing you with more engaging stories in 2022.
